The social and ceremonial music of the Pedi

Huskisson, Yvonne January 1958 (has links)
Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Arts, School of Music,1958 / The tribes that fall under the Northern Sotho or Pedi language group are found in the area more or less bounded by Middelburg, Pilgrims Rest, Malopene, the Blaauwberg and Hamanskraal . No print can adequately describe the vital panorama of Pedi life. In surveying the musical practices of the Pedi I soon realised that their music was not an isolated entity but an integral unit of their whole pattern of living, both socially and ceremonially. It is from this essentially ' alive' standpoint, rather than as a scientific analysis of scale systems, etc., that I approached the subject of Pedi music. [Abbreviated Abstract.
